Gujarat races ahead in IPO rush, tops Q1 listings and fundraising
Ahmedabad: Gujarat has surged ahead in the IPO race, topping the charts for the highest number of listings in the first quarter of FY26. A total of 14 companies from the state went public across the NSE and BSE platforms, collectively raising over Rs 3,495 crore, edging out heavyweights like Maharashtra and Delhi. Data from the National Stock Exchange (NSE) shows that nine Gujarat-based firms listed on both the mainboard and NSE Emerge, mobilised Rs 3,374 crore during April-June 2025. Maharashtra matched Gujarat in terms of the number of NSE listings but trailed slightly in proceeds at Rs 3,300 crore. Meanwhile, four companies from the NCT of Delhi raised the highest capital among states, mopping up Rs 3,657 crore. On the BSE SME platform, Gujarat again led in terms of company count, with five firms raising Rs 121.6 crore, nearly a third of the total SME IPOs during the quarter.

Financial literacy requires genuine efforts
Investor awareness is about statistics. There is a lot of crowing about investor awareness programmes that a regulator like the Securities and Exchange Board of India, a mutual fund or a stock exchange conducts across the length and breadth of India. They claim to do them in local languages with thousands of financial trainers. All that effort has translated into a 27% financial literacy rate, according to a study published in the latest monthly bulletin of the National Stock Exchange. In a country of 140 crore people, a quarter are financially literate. It is no small achievement if you think about absolute numbers. However, it is lower than the global average of 35%. The survey, which was quoted in the NSE bulletin, was conducted in 2019. The study states that there are significant variations in the financial literacy levels of urban and rural India, glaring disparities in the states and regions, and significant differences between men and women. The worrying factor is that the boom in the financial markets happened after 2019 and in the post-COVID-19 world. Demat and trading accounts and mutual fund folios surged to record levels. All of that happened on a weak and skewed base of financial literacy. That explains the country's 7-8% penetration of financial services products. All of that is despite a dramatic surge in the effort to increase investor awareness. Assertive efforts Financial literacy programmes cover basic topics across financial products. They probably touch upon the topics of financial advice and asset allocation. However, learning about these things is not a one-off exercise. It is a constant learning curve. On top of that, the literacy push lacks assertiveness. For example, there is no reason for anyone to indulge in day-trading or derivatives without adequate knowledge. When regulators like Sebi publish studies about most traders losing money, many social media champions swing into action to tell people that, however, financial literacy clashes with business interests. A stock exchange or a broker will not overtly discourage people from trading in risky instruments. Those high trading volumes generate income for the entire stock market ecosystem. Similarly, mutual funds often balance their act of pushing passive and active mutual fund schemes. The focus is getting investors to buy into schemes that provide a better fund management fee. An index or an exchange-traded fund carries a minimal fund management fee.

Round trip to nowhere: Markets break a sweat, but not new ground
Markets moved. Wealth didn't. One year later, it's deja vu for investors Samie Modak Mumbai Listen to This Article After a roller-coaster year, the markets have ended up where they began. The benchmark Nifty 50 closed July at 24,768 — 183 points, or 0.73 per cent, below its July 2024 close of 24,951. Over the past 12 months, the advance/decline ratio for BSE-listed companies has been evenly split — six months of gains, six of losses. This fine balance between advancing and declining stocks underscores the difficulty investors have faced in locking in consistent returns. As a result, for many who entered the market through direct stocks or mutual funds, the outcome has been underwhelming.
